Guys And Dolls

What's playing at the Roxy

I'll tell you what's playing at the Roxy

A picture about a Minnesota man so in love

With a Mississippi girl that he sacrifices everything

And moves all the way to Biloxi

That's what's playing at the Roxy

What's in the Daily News

I'll tell you what's in the Daily News

A story about a guy who bought his wife

A small ruby with what otherwise

Would have been his union dues

That's what's in the Daily News

What's happenin' all over

I'll tell you what's happenin' all over

Guy sittin' home by a television set

Who once used to be somethin' of a rover

That's what's happenin' all over

Love is the thing that has licked 'em

And it looks like Nathan's just another victim

Yes sir when you see a guy reach for stars in the sky

You can bet that he's doing it for some doll

When you spot a John waiting out in the rain

Chances are he's insane as only a John can be for a Jane

When you meet a gent payin' all kinds of rent

For a flat that could flatten the Taj Mahal

Call it sad call it funny but it's better than even money

That the guy's only doing it for some doll

When you see a Joe savin' half of his dough

You can bet they'll be mink in' it for some doll

When a bum buys wine like a bum can't afford

It's a cinch that the bum is under the thumb of some little broad

When you meet a mug lately out of the jug

And he's still liftin' platinum fol de rol

Call it hell call it heaven it's a probable twelve to seven

That the guy's only doing it for some doll

When you see a sport and his cash has run short

Make a bet that he's bankin' it with some doll

When a guy wears tails with the front gleamin' white

Who the hell do you think he's ticklin' pink on Saturday night

When a lazy slob takes a good steady job

And he smells from Vitalis and Barbasol

Call it dumb call it clever

Ah but you can give odds forever

That the guy's only doing it for some doll

Some doll some doll

The guy's only doing it for some doll
